Former Thebes School

Based on the human health threat from exposure posed by the dilapidated, asbestos-containing school located at 7th and Oak Street in Thebes, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Illinois EPA) will demolish the building and cleanup the site using both Federal and State funding. Due to the condition of this former school, it is highly likely that asbestos fibers are being released to the environment and coming in contact with trespassers.  Health concerns for human exposure warrants corrective action at this location.
